Channel 4, in the UK, are going to broadcast a documentary called "The King in the Car park" on 4th of February 2013, by which time the results of the DNA should be in, and we will know either way if the skeleton is that of Richard III.

I lost all hope of a proper historical treatment after some article reported that the skeleton had a possible hump.

If it's him, then it will be the real him, not the one of Shakespeare and Tudor propaganda. That means no withered arm, no uneven legs and no hump.

He is a TV show host who once did a special live show where Al Capone's vault was opened. It was really, really hyped up that exciting stuff would be found (riches, body parts...) - but there was nothing beyond a few dirty bottles.

Geraldo Rivera was an extremely annoying television reporter. In the little town where I lived, there was a nasty incident when a freight train caught fire in a tunnel. Geraldo was right there sticking a microphone into the faces of emergency personnel trying to get in and deal with the mess. Other reporters were there and allowed to stay but Geraldo had to be escorted from the site by the State Troopers.

When the news world got sick and tired of him, He became a host of talk shows that focused on the sensational and lurid. In the NYC area, he gained the nickname of 'Horrendo Revolver'.

Here in the US we've heard about the Richard III discovery. It's an interesting story and we look forward to more information. I doubt that, if the remains really are those of Richard, there will be much official recognition of a reburial. The Richard III Society will provide the hoop-la.

My cousin's memoir of love and loneliness while raising a child with multiple disabilities will be out on Amazon soon! Know the Night, by Maria Mutch, has been called "full of hope, light, and companionship for surviving the small hours of the night."

One article I read said that his reign will now have to be reassessed.

Why? Why doe the presence of the body mean the entire reign is open for investigation?

The historians are using the opportunity and interest to re-examine what really happened during his reign and what was propaganda. For example, examination of the body shows his physical deformity was not as bad as was claimed.

Is there some pun I'm not aware of between "sun" and "son"? I've read the play but don't recall whether it was "sun" there.

I can't wait to see a documentary on this whole process of the discovery, excavation, testing and what comes next. I hope the History channel can find a spot for it in between the trashy staged reality shows that now pollute their lineup.

Actually, I hope it appears on PBS so I can trust the information and don't have to be assaulted with loud commercials for said trash reality commercials while it's on.
